The unconquered one was born from a rock, if he is
regarded as a god. Now tell us, then, on the other hand, which is
the first of these two. The rock has overcome the god: then
the creator of the rock has to be sought after. Moreover, you
still depict him also as a thief; although, if he were a god, he
certainly did not live by theft. Assuredly he was of earth, and
of a monstrous nature. And he turned other people’s oxen
into his caves; just as did Cacus, that son of Vulcan.
